Chapter 533 Forging Primordial Friendships
As Nyx spun around the foyer in wonder, she suddenly heard the sound of footsteps coming from one of the halls.
Lisa emerged at the top of the staircase, looking like she had only just woken up.
Her dark brown hair was tied messily above her head, and the only fabric covering her body was that of a large sweater dress that hung on her body loosely and came down to her thighs.
“Nyx..? I only texted you a moment ago, how did you get here so fast, or find our home for that matter?”
The goddess appeared right beside Lisa and wrapped her curvaceous golden body in a hug.
Since Lisa was now well over 6 feet tall, it looked a bit like a middle schooler hugging their high school crush.
“My lovely Lisa, don’t you remember who I am? You aren’t the only one with friends in high places.”
“…You pestered the creators until they told you where we lived, didn’t you?”
“I certainly did!”
Lisa shook her head as Seras entered the room with her parents in tow.
“Pookie snookems, who is that..?” Hajun whispered discretely.
“…She’s a goddess, pa.” For the first time in hundreds of years, Seras did not inflict bodily harm onto her father for babying her.
“What kind…?” Kirina asked discreetly.
“Primordial… she is one of the first, born from Chaos itself.”
“”Ohhh…””
By now, there was no one in Abaddon’s life who was as overwhelmed by the presence of primordial gods as they should have been.
I mean when the creator and his wife show up to dinner parties and keep up with Valerie’s drinkig without becoming inebriated themselves, everything else kind of falls flat.
Suddenly, Abaddon emerged from his bedroom, looking different from his usual self.
As soon as Nyx saw him, she began to pout.
Currently, the black dragon wore a large, comfortable hoodie and sweatpants to match.
His posture was the most relaxed it had been in over a year, and just like Lisa he had a somewhat drowsy look on his face.
‘I missed hoodies…’ he was still iffy on his feelings about the creator, but this was a birthday gift he was monumentally grateful for.
But again, Nyx was not.
“Why would you cover such a tantalizing body with such unremarkable and hard to see through fabric!?”
Abaddon yawned as he walked past the goddess.
“Good morning to you too, Nyx… And I wasn’t aware that I had to dress to impress someone in my own home. My mistake.”
“…Well your face remains aesthetically pleasing and visible, so I can forgive this minor discrepancy.” Nyx said as she ignored Lisa’s glare.
“…” Abaddon pulled his hood over his face and pulled the drawstrings closed as he walkd to the kitchen.
“…You aren’t funny, dragon.” Nyx muttered.
“”Yes he is.”” Lisa and Seras agreed in unison.
“Well of course the two of you would think so…” she muttered.
She and the girls followed Abaddon into the common area kitchen where he was already cutting up a banana and dropping it into a bowl.
Seras hopped onto the counter beside him and pointed to her open mouth repeatedly.
As Abaddon hand fed his cute, but decidedly scary wife, Nyx helped herself to a seat at the bar in front of them.
Everywhere she went, she continued to let her eyes drag over the place in wonder.
“You all have quite the beautiful home here. I actually feel a little bit jealous.”“Yes, well… I’m sure you’ll be around here quite a bit in the near future.” Abaddon muttered.
“Hm? And what makes you say that, darling dragon?”
Abaddon briefly remembered the desperate and somewhat predatory looks that’s children had given Nyx’s daughter and her friends.
It broke his heart as a father to learn that his kids held such a near bottomless lust.
“I dunno… just call it a hunch.” he muttered.
“?”
“A-Anyway… the reason that I had Lisa text you is that we’ve finally made a decision. We’re going to help your son and daughter.”
Externally Nyx maintained a decent poker face, but internally she was over the moon.
Relief flooded her ancient heart, and she felt more relaxed than she had in quite a while.
However, she didn’t know what Abaddon would ask in return for this.
“What’s the catch?”
Abaddon cut up a few more bananas while being sure to drop a few slices into Seras’ mouth.
“…Let’s just establish a friendship and call this a small favor, yea? No need to make things overly complicated.”
Nyx took a moment to blink several times over as she tried to grasp the hidden meaning behind what Abaddon had just said.
“I’m sorry… I don’t believe I understand.” she finally said.
Abaddon shrugged without looking at her, partially surprised at himself for throwing such a massive opportunity away.
But no matter how many times he thought about it, he continued to come back to this same conclusion time and time again.
“Taking advantage of a mother whose sole interest is in aiding her children turns my stomach quite a bit.
Maybe it’s foolish, and maybe it’s wasteful, but I can’t move past it.
Perhaps having so many children of my own has finally rendered me senile.”
“We’ll still love you even if you are mad, darling.” Seras replied as she kissed him on the cheek.
As Abaddon smiled to himself, Nyx continued to stare at him like he had just grown five more horns.
She more than anyone else knew of the struggles facing Abaddon at this moment.
Should he have asked it, she would have killed most of the greek pantheon herself, or even the Nords.
She could have saved his grandparents, or given him a titanic advantage in the endwar.
But he didn’t ask her to do anything.
He didn’t ask for anything.
It didn’t make any sense.
Even more shocking was the fact that he didn’t seem to be doing this to gain sympathy or make her let her guard down.
In an instant, she felt as if she understood everything about the man who had the realms of heaven on high alert.
He wasn’t a schemer, and he wasn’t some great malevolent monster.
‘I never would have imagined that you would have turned out like this after what I saw…’
Unlike 99.9% of deities, Nyx was around back when Abaddon was first charged with guarding the gates.
But since she and the creator did not have the most… outstanding relationship at that time, so she simply decided to watch from afar.
And watch she did.
She witnessed Abaddon’s glorious battle against the creator in it’s entirety, and even she was blinded by it.
She could never have imagined that he would have turned out to be.. this.
And it honestly moved her quite a bit.
“…Where is your bedroom?”
Abaddon / Seras / Lisa: “””No.”””
“You would prefer to have me here?”
“””No!”””
“Why can’t you just say thank you like a normal person?” Lisa asked exhaustedly.
“I’m greek.” Nyx shrugged.
Somehow, the married trio felt like that answered a lot of questions.
Nyx finally rested her body on the counter in defeat.
Out of the corner of her eye, she watched Abaddon continue feeding Seras and occasionally swap over to Lisa.
And at that moment, she had a sudden thought.
“Hey… didn’t you say that you wanted to fight me?”
Seras ears visibly twitched, and Lisa and Abaddon sighed internally.
Taking several seconds to compose herself, Seras exhaled as she lowered her head apologetically.
“About that… I’m sorry for my rudeness. I didn’t mean to spoil such a moment with talks of violence.”
“…” Abaddon and Lisa proceeded to pluck out their eyes and ears and allow them to grow back so that they could ensure that they were hearing and seeing the real Seras.
Nyx took a couple of seconds to blink before she patted Seras on top of the head like she was a big doberman.
“Well aren’t you just the cutest?”
“”She is.”” Abaddon and Lisa nodded in unison.
Seras merely blushed as her red scales became even redder.
Nyx smiled beautifully. “Well you certainly caught me by surprise, but I wouldn’t say that I was offended. I just don’t get many requests like that is all.”
Suddenly, the goddess stood up and performed a couple of punches in the air with bad form and no power. “Hmph! Hmph!”
While the girls tried not to giggle, Abaddon smirked.
“I’m a little bit rusty, but I will do my best to act as a suitable sparring partner for you!”
By now, literal crystals of energy had formed in Seras’ eyes as her tail wagged back and forth like a propeller.
She looked toward Abaddon and Lisa with expectant eyes.
“You don’t need to ask us for permission, darling.” Abaddon smiled.
“If this is what you want to do, you should go for it.” Lisa added. “Like you said, it is a good opportunity to gauge our current standing.”
Seras was suddenly flooded with an unbelievable amount of energy.
She vibrated like an adult toy before she threw her arms around Abaddon and Lisa dramatically.
“Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!” She planted a big kiss on Lisa’s lips before giving Abaddon a much more provocative one.
“Forgetting someone?” Nyx tapped her lips and closed her eyes.
“””NO!”””
“My, how prudish…”
Rolling her eyes, Seras immediately stood up and started stretching.
Nyx stared at Abaddon and Lisa like she was waiting for them to do something as well.
“…What?”
“Well aren’t the two of you going to change and join her? I don’t think it’s very responsible of you to let her do this on her own.”
At that moment, Nyx received three very different reactions.
Lisa: “I, um..”
Abaddon: “Eh?”
Seras: “What’s that supposed to mean?!”
The goddess of night shrugged.
“I play a little bit rough, you know? I think you would all learn more and have a better chance if you worked as a unit since just one of you would make things too easy.”
This time, Nyx only received two different reactions.
Abaddon and Seras narrowed their eyes as a rolling heat began to leave their bodies.
“…Did she just call us pussy?”
“It feels like she did.”
“We cannot let this slide by unpunished.”
“Indeed not.”
Lisa smiled warmly as she clapped her hands. “Oh my, this will be so fun! I usually never get to do anything like this!”
Nyx smiled at the three fearsome dragons in front of her without a modicum of fear in her heart.
“Great! Then where shall we go? Your realm or mine?”
– 8 Minutes Later.
Abaddon, Seras, and Lisa were standing on one of the abandoned planets floating above the abyssal lands of Tehom.
Without an ounce of shyness, Lisa shrugged off her sweater dress and sent it into her dimensional storage.
However, she wasn’t standing around naked either.
From the minute she started to undress, her yellowy gold scales grew to cover her body from the neck down like medieval chainmail.
She also altered her body composition just a bit to make herself slimmer so that she could have an easier time cutting through the air.
Since Seras had already been training this morning, all she had to do was tighten her gi belt and she was good to go.
Abaddon stood in the middle of them, and tied up his long red hair into a ponytail as he stared at Nyx unflinchingly.
He had ditched his hoodie and sweatpants for a pair of black gi pants tied with his favorite red belt.
On his torso he wore a sleeveless black tunic that did nothing to hide his rippling physique.
Meanwhile, Nyx… hadn’t changed out of her dress or heels.
‘She is most definitely mocking us…’ they all thought at once.
